No.
Brayden Price
The fuck?
What about fansubs?
Landon Morgan
I hope this episode kills the idea of boogie being some sort of counter force body jacker for animeonlys
William Walker
Nani
Jacob Mitchell
I doubt it would. The novel is a little more clear about your pic being the moment when Boogiepop is born from Touka for the first time. In the anime, it just looks like any of Boogiepop's random appearances.
Noah Allen
I hope so too, as an animeonly who feels like Boogie is some sort of counter force body jacker.
Benjamin Young
SUBS WHEN?
Isaac Thomas
huh
have I been staying up for nohing
Levi Foster
Bentley Scott
It hurts to see so little interest in the show, man. Maybe that's for the best but hopefully once all the eps are out, people can appreciate it more.
Eli Clark
This show is pretty much the epitome of binge-watching since A LOT of details and characters are referenced back and forth, it was probably hard to keep track of if you watch it weekly
Isaiah Sullivan
I am very interested
Carson Ramirez
It definitely doesn't help that nearly all the characters have full Japanese names and that they don't get formal title cards when introduced.
You're decent, user
Carson Adams
OST release when?
It's the only redeeming point of this series.
Charles King
Christopher Hernandez
That's cool. But anime-onlys would never understand these sort of things, and I can't blame them. There should be more emphasis in the fact Boogie took his signature non-smile smug from Kuroda. Maybe Boogie should have made the gesture just after Kuroda did, as if mirroring it. That would have make it easier to understand.
Cooper Hernandez
>That attention to detail on the cloth and fabrics
Tyler Murphy
>No.
Can anyone confirm this? Are we really not getting subtitles for this arc?
Luke Hall
Just finished watching all 4 episodes thanks to Wakanim.
Best fucking arc yet. Hope you guys get good subs soon.
Thomas Stewart
We're gonna get it but we'll have to wait a bit.
Luke Jones
I'm just hoping for horrible subs.
Carson Hill
Okay. I don't mind waiting, but I'd like to know how long. It bothers me that Crunchyroll is not saying anything about it.
Jose Mitchell
The first arc was completely ruined by cutting out or shortening character arcs. The first episode essentially lied to the viewer by suggesting this would be an unravelling mystery you can piece together over the course of 11 episodes, like Haruhi or Baccano which of course were inspierd by the original novel. Instead it's over in 4 episodes and manages the impressive feat of having two endings but no closure on anything.
The second arc was much better paced but still cut out entire character arcs, again, for no conceivable reason. Why even bother introducing gay kid if his entire MK Ultra adventure was finished in 9 minutes and he doesn't show up again?
I'm still watching but it's like seeing a clip show of a better anime.
Ayden Ward
>Instead it's over in 4 episodes
3 Actually
>cut out entire character arcs, again, for no conceivable reason
They didn't have enough episodes. They're giving King of Distortion 5 eps and At Dawn 4 eps, which is the right choice imo.
Oliver Perry
The point of the gay kid is to show what happens when you live a life that it's not really your own. It's not a nice place to be, and there's no happy ending for him, but that's just what happen in real life sometimes (a lot of times, actually).
That said, I do agree the execution could have been better. Specially when it comes to help non-novel readers understand what's going on. The novel can do that by explain things in narration, but the anime can't rely in narrations. It takes a skilled director to shown in images what a book delivered in narration. Boogiepop fails at this.
Gabriel King
>next is king of distortion
Nice
Jonathan Miller
I suppose my argument is either give him a whole episode, or write him out.
It's completely insane to me he gets any coverage at all despite never being relevant again, meanwhile the kid who literally kills the villain of arc 1 is a nobody in comparison.
What IS this writing?
Luke Butler
>meanwhile the kid who literally kills the villain of arc 1 is a nobody in comparison.
You will be surprised.
Michael Turner
>I suppose my argument is either give him a whole episode, or write him out.
It would be nice to give him a whole episode, but the conclusion would be the same. At most, giving it more time might help to make things more clear. But it would change his fate.
>meanwhile the kid who literally kills the villain of arc 1 is a nobody in comparison.
He shows up in the next arc so you're get more of him then.
Aaron Lewis
*it wouldn't change his fate
It's too early for this shit.
Blake Turner
The weak should fear the strong
Nolan Jackson
and everyone should fear boogiepop
Aaron Smith
All of them are reoccurring characters
You see that kid again after this arc

Nevermind turns out that Erai has all subs up
Gabriel Allen
I was nicely surprised by bug eater guy showing up. I thought he was Phantom-original being loosely based on Jin but not at all actually.
Guess Manakete and Poom Poom are the only things Phantom really did all on its own. Fitting since they're the best thing about the entire franchise, being even better than most of the actual novels' arcs.
Christopher Adams
Being MPLS
Charles Cook
Evolution gone wrong
Joseph Ward
She's not. She gained power taking the drug that saved Nagi's life. MPLS got their powers naturally.
Tyler Bennett
It seems weird that they would just dump 4 episodes randomly instead of releasing a movie or something. Has this ever happened before?
Isaac Evans
Not that I'm aware of. The 18 episode count is already a strange number and I guess the TV stations couldn't accomodate their schedule.
Alexander Rodriguez
>4 Boogiepop episodes back to back
That's nice and all but I'm fucking tired from attending a wedding so I'll just watch it and go to sleep. Hopefully this thread will survive so that I can ask questions.
Jace Martinez
I just finished reading the fourth novel.
Jesus Christ, that was some really bizarre shit.
Does...does the novels get stranger than this further down the line?
Leo Carter
Why do nips love this phrase so much?
Connor Hall
In the translated parts no.
It nevers gets stranger than zombies on roller skates chasing a car and beating it with steel tubes.
Being a special isn't that out of the ordinary. Usually it's just at the end of the show or the beginning instead of in the middle. But Boogiepop novels are so self-contained that it doesn't really matter.
Parker Carter
The drug induces or stops evolution.
Nathan Brown
It induces evolution on a normal human, but stops evolution of an MPLS.
MPLS are people who evolved naturally, like Suiko, Jin, Touka and such. Nagi was an MPLS but her evolution was killing her body.
Oliver Allen
>Nagi was an MPLS but her evolution was killing her body.
Befitting to the daughter of Kirima Seichii, the most chuuni of evolutions
Caleb Wright
>afraid of old men
Touka-chan is used goods, so is boogiepop. That's kind of hot.
Ryan Harris
Bakemonogatari has the same episode count, though there the last 4 were ONA
David Allen
Isaac Johnson
Retarded question.
Why the utter fuck are there four episodes out today? Is this covering the third or fourth novel?
Jaxson Garcia
Yep, twice. At the end of VS Imaginator 6 and Boogiepop at Dawn 1
Cameron Sanders
Why is that?
Evan Rodriguez
The third novel was already covered. It's VS Imaginator part 2.
But today's episodes cover the sixth novel.
Angel Edwards
At last, I can truly imagine
Andrew Phillips
the 2002 anime was also fandubbed in russian
Jack Bennett
Because At Dawn got a 2 hour special this morning
Nathaniel Carter
Why doesn't Boogie ever get involved before tons of people have fucking died?
Sebastian Nguyen
You need to involve a weird girl carrying a big bag first
Brody Baker
Alexander Rivera
Because he only takes action if it's strictly necessary. Nagi was doing okay against Fear Ghoul so Boogiepop didn't see the need to intervene until the end.
Angel Foster
>bug eater guy
Really? Is he not anime original? Well maybe we will see poom poom too
Kevin Harris
How in the fuck
Colton Bailey
Why is Boogiepop such a delusional freak?
Thomas Moore
Logan Allen
As someone who hasn't watched Phantom in atleast a decade and who didn't like it much.
Who is this Bug Eater based on?
Andrew King
Fear Ghouls body was rapidly degrading, probably because she was afraid
Anthony Morris
Do we have any anime-only viewers here? Do You guys understand what MPLS means just by watching these episodes?
Cameron Gutierrez
she looks really fat here
Camden Adams
There were a lot more anime onlies in the last thread than I expected.
They really shouldn't have a problem with MPLS after the first episode of At Dawn
Gabriel Walker
Oh boy, time to maybe get confused and try to digest the 4 episodes out right now.

Jeremiah Ortiz

Colton Martin

Scarecrow met Touka in the backyard of crematory. It's not stated in the anime but in the novel they said Touka was there because they were cremating someone from her family.
So much death.

Why did all these episodes come out in one day?
Samuel Hall
Levi Anderson
Fuck, this arc was actually enjoyable. I might be selfish for wanting Boogiepop to just drop more episodes but damn I genuinely enjoyed this arc even more than the Imaginator arc. I suppose the only bad thing is that there's less OC like this.
Adrian Howard
so boogie isn't a world defending mechanism but touka being an autist? I suppose she has superpowers otherwise how would a fucking little girl go out wrecking supernatural beings?
Zachary Powell
When do we find out about his evolution?
Ian Reyes
The show was cancelled so they just dumped all the episodes they had finished.
Thomas Wood
Yes. Touka is an MPLS just like Suiko, Jin and others out there. Her power is.. well, Boogiepop. Or it would more accurate to say her power manifests as an alternate personality that calls itself Boogiepop, But it's still just Touka.
Gabriel Gutierrez
Never. But don't you think it's weird most of his readers were MPLS? Maybe he had some power that manifested through his writing.
David Ward
I have only one question.
Why is Boogiepop hanging out with Echoes on a dead planet?
Angel Garcia
You'll find out next arc
Noah Miller
Well now everything makes a lot more sense.

In the novel that scene had such an eerie feel to it. Suiko felt pretty otherworldly from Seiichi's perspective. In the anime she seems like a pretty peasant and nice loli instead. I don't dislike that change in tone though.
Cooper Harris
what's up with this scene in the OP? is it something we're going to witness in full in future episodes?

I've read enough SMBC to know that's usually a bad idea as a handful of times, it'll just lead to you having an existential crisis
Benjamin Cruz
So. It's always the same structure since boogie-loli.
>Shit happens because of some evo-people.
>Nagi trying to to something but failed.
>Boogie come and easily defeat every-fucking-one.
What a power fantasy.
Leo James
Boogie too OP. Please nerf.
Kevin Hill
Nagi already beat it this time though
Elijah Morris
Well, fuck.
Parker Jenkins
Yeah but Nagi couldn't chase it anymore and if Fear Ghoul managed to escape, who knows what would have happened later on. Boogie saved the day by preventing her escape.
Michael Carter
Andrew Turner
For what is worth, Nagi has her own spinoff series when they show her successful cases.
Hunter James
MUH KYOUFU. Crazy bitch.
Henry Collins
She lost a leg while running away, she was already defeated before boogie went for the kill.
Levi Thompson
Lets armbar some enhanced human.
Tyler Watson
I'm pretty sure Boogie cut her leg.
Jack Allen
What does MPLS mean again?
Nathan Carter
But didn't those people who read his book state that they have been hiding their powers since forever, even before they read his books?
Colton Reyes
Evolved humans. People who were born one step further the evolutionary ladder than most people. Basically X-Men.
Jeremiah Ramirez
Basically yes. But reading his books is what turned them from regular people with powers into enemies of the world
Jonathan Thompson
Why would Boogie attack MiyashitaMama?
Mason Morales
The novel explains he was traing to get out of the house to fight some enemy shit and Touka's mother tries to stop her.
Daniel Moore
Wasn't that because they then proceeded to reveal their abilities? None of that would have happened to them if they kept it a secret like Suiko.
Carson Roberts
That sounds hilarious.
Blake Cox
Has anyone here read the untranslated novels?
Are they good?
Jayden Ward
Yes. But they were influenced by Seiichi's writing. It's what gave them the courage to reveal their abilities.
Lucas Long

It must have been a really awkward situation.

Unless King of Distortion is really, really bad, then this anime won't be at least under 8. Although I feel like I might have been spoiled who the king is, if the themes of the arc are delivered well-enough to be the meat of it instead of the twist then it's good enough for me.

Elijah Perez
She and this case were mentioned by Kentarou in the dead crows subplot, but I think Suema herself didn't have any more appearances here.
Mason Bell
HE'S THE KING OF DISTORTION
Bentley Howard
I don't think so. She had more screentime in the first arc, but the anime removed some parts. For example the part where Nagi reveals she knows Suema is the survivor of the murders from 5 years ago and that's the reason Suema always get involved in weird shit. Anime-onlys have no idea why Suema is so drawn to weird shit because the anime fucked up.
Dominic Hill

Isaac Diaz
Her body was forced to evolve too fast because of the magic drug she took. Because of that it was more fragile than it should have been. Nagi didn't know that. She just got lucky.
Oliver Russell
That Suema is obsessed with criminal stuff because she was stalked by the serial killer on Dawn.
Jonathan Jenkins
Lurk for two years before posting newfag.
Jayden Brown
Are you retarded ? The whole episode is about the insects in the heart metaphor and you even have a character speak directly to Mo Murder about it.
Adrian Gutierrez
Kisugi targeting Suema and her photo in Sasaki's apartment is enough to reconstruct everything.
Ryder Carter
granted , i asked this question as soon as i saw nagi do it , but it got explained like a minute later anyway
i really should finish episodes before posting , im sorry
Bentley Rodriguez
But you didn't know that during Vs Imaginator. As a result, most of her action in that arc don't make any sense. In the novel, you already know her motives at that point. That puts her actions and mindset in proper context. It's how it should have been.
Ayden Williams

John Bell
>but the anime can't rely in narrations. It takes a skilled director to shown in images what a book delivered in narration.

Anthony Kelly
This kind of shitposting is by far the worst consequence of the split.
Samuel Moore
Yeah, but that's kind of a cop out. Mind you, Boogiepop is one of few cases when having internal narration would have made sense.
Xavier Thomas
I know it's maybe asking too much but I really hope to see just a little more of Naoko in KoD.
She actually feels like the most important character in the series. I want to know more about how our savior was really like.
Oliver Long
Eh, I thought it worked pretty good in stuff like Durarara. Probably more anime could benefit from narration.
Robert Cooper
>Phatomfag though the miracle boy, hidden talent awakener was a 'bug eater'
Jeremiah Clark
I haven't seen a single piece of CG so far.
Daniel Lopez
One of the chapters the anime skipped in the first arc elaborated a bit on Naoko. I guess whoever wrote/direct the anime didn't think the world's savior deserved much characterization.
Jayden Williams
You are fucking stupid dude.
Jordan Mitchell
I'm aware of that. It's why I'm hoping that specific chapter "somehow" get an episode in the middle of this last arc.
Since if my theory's right, that chapter could take all its importance now considering the King's identity.
Matthew Cox
>imagine
Leo Wright
Bugs are just prime chuuni quote, that guy power is nothing about bugs. Not to mention the meaning is very different.
Angel Wood
I wouldn't bank on it. 5th novel is the longest out of first six and it definitely could use all the episodes it gets.
Bentley Gutierrez
In the novel, her body is described as melting. like sizzling and popping from the electricity making her evolve more.
Nicholas Lopez
What is she doing?
Kevin Long
The novel also said she was planning on escaping and it seemed plausible until Boogiepop showed up.
Joseph Wilson
The story of Boogiepop is one that still weights heavily upon me.
Jackson Martin
I'm curious on this as well.
Mainly because with a handful of LN, like Kino or Konosuba, there's at least a fanbase to translate chapters or give a summary
But with Boogiepop...there's literally nothing. Hell, I can't even find any of the novels on mandarake.
Just like Boogiepop himself, the novels are a complete mystery.
Gabriel Anderson
This one will be useful
Nathaniel Thomas
It's weird, I thought the old anime had a cult following for a little while but then no-one seemed to talk about it at all after a couple years.
Christian Murphy
The Phantom cult following revolves around schizo Lainfags who need their "muh psychological anime" fix, they never gave a fuck about the novels.
Hunter Foster
Why boogiepop is so arousing? What would it feel like having sex with her?
Ryder Gray
she'd cut your d with her wire
Caleb Fisher
I love Phantom but fucking hate Lain. Don't lump me up with those fags and stop trying to stir shit up between those who like Phantom and those who like 2019. They're not mutually exclusive.
David Roberts
Were the subs of episode 10 wrongly timed for anyone else or just me? It's like they were a second or two too early.
Christian Peterson
I'm not lumping phantomfags with lainfags, just saying that there is a tendency between lainfags to enjoy phantom and most threads before the current anime was announced were full of lainfags.
Jack Ross
that's hot
James White
That still didn't change about how the majority of these fags not giving a fuck about the source material.
Zachary Martin

Don't be a fag Phantom is a good show, the one problem it has though is that it expects you to know about the universe beforehand
Aaron Price
What happened to him he showed up at the start and never again despite us seeing touka plenty. It's also weird how it was made out to be a tragedy for him that boogiepop is gone when he actually turns up all the damn time even randomly in touka's normal life.
Kayden Turner
what dialect are they speaking or am I just retarded?
Jayden Anderson
Didn't boogie pop say that the electric shock upset the balance of Fear Ghoul's new body causing it to degrade?
Luke Parker
The first few episodes were confusing because all the characters look alike and it was non-chronilogical
Jordan Thomas
Sounded like fairly standard Japanese to me.
Thomas Butler
>all the characters look alike
Racist.
Aaron Sanders
Maybe I'm being a brainlet and missing something, but who the fuck killed Scarecrow?
He jumps out of the window being mostly fine, then there's the chase shown earlier and then it cuts to Mo Murder walking up to a pool of blood,then in the next scene Scarecrow has a knife stuck in him.
Carter Flores
Kuroda succumbed to his injuries, He didn't jump out of the window fine.
Levi Perez
My guess:
Higher ups don't give the staff more than the standard single cour worth of timeslots. These higher ups don't want to go streaming only for episodes after 12-13 (like Dies irae and Satsuriku no Tenshi did)
Staff wants 18 episodes, so they reach this compromise (airing the first 2 episodes in the premiere day, and airing 4 episodes (10-13) on free timeslots they happened to find as a 2 hour special, besides the weekly episode (9))
Charles Rivera
what the fuck is her problem

Overdosed on KYOUFU.
Tyler Brooks
Shes feeding on fear.
Tyler Morgan
Is boogiepop the strongest force in this series or are there some who can give him/her a good fight?
David Lee
What do you watch that doesn't use japanese names and has title cards
Isaiah Wood
Exclusively americanized english dubs
Cooper Martin
are 12 and 13 getting subbed today and is 13 the last episode?
Nathaniel Ramirez
they're all subbed?
Leo Cook
Yes and yes.
Easton Torres
are you asking if theyre all subbed?
Ayden Campbell
No, they all are subbed already.
Jaxson Adams
theyre all subbed and this has 18 episodes
Lincoln Hill
why is there a question mark?
thanks
Jackson Watson
Made for old men
Joshua Ortiz
Nagi will never give it to you roughly
Christopher Green
So why was Towa killing chuunis? Because they might pose a threat to them or something?
Do all MPLS go through some type of change while evolving like Nagi did with her being in extreme pain? Nagi's was going to kill her if it didn't stop. Boogiepop just kind of manifested when Touka found Scarecrow.
Does Nagi have no idea Murder killed her dad? She had a little flashback towards the end but that seemed like the doctor lady just trying to elicit fear from her.
Owen Campbell
God I wish that were me
Charles Lee
Yes
No
I don't think so
Hunter Reyes
Boogiepop is still Touka, so does Boogiepop's mission influence Touka's life in anyway? Like what is Touka got pregnant, that would make it difficult for Boogiepop to fight properly. So would Touka avoid having children or doing things like that that would burden Boogiepop?
Bentley Brown
So Imaginator vs Imagine Breaker?
Tyler Diaz
>Eurobeat starts playing
Ian Taylor
>IMAGINATOR just sort of gives up and dies
this is what happens when you stop imagining.
Kayden Williams
Wow, Nagi really fucking goes after the old guys.
Kayden Sanders
We got the whistle!
Levi Ross
This bitch is wild
Brody Roberts
They really wen't all out with the smug
I love it
Parker Harris
>gives up
>Suiko
user please, she got something from the event. It's still a positive outcome for her I think.
Austin Johnson
This one shot and she already seems like instant worst girl material
James James
>Racist.
Not that user, but why do Japanese people keep drawing white people in their anime and then give them dumb names that they can pronounce. Why don't they just draw Japanese people for their series? It's almost as if they have some kind of complex.
Jason Lewis
boogiepoppu!
Elijah Johnson
>are you not entertained? Is that not why you're here?
Angel Wood
She has a huge Daddy complex.
Christian Cruz
I feel bad for the hacker boy
Oliver Reyes
> my dick is thiiiiiiiiiiiis big
Cameron Hughes
Okay what is boogiepop's powers? General Superhuman + some sort of target based information ability?
Benjamin Foster
Nagi is a massive chuuni
Levi Baker
Strings.
Joseph Perez
Nagi wants to suck old man dick.
That's not chuuni.
Nathaniel Wood
Boogie
William Martin
Why is there so many episodes today?
Nathan Gray
Today is boogie day
David Brooks
Holy shitty titty! Episode 10 was so fucking great. Might be the best episode of this shitty winter season.
Colton Collins
Pretty much all LNfags I know come to the conclusion that boogiepop is just Touka chuuni form but there seems to be a few who don't think so. Quite surprising, I mean what else makes any sense?
Michael Reyes
Woah there sick fuck
Adrian Murphy
comfy thread
so did you enjoy this arc?
i really liked it
Julian Hall
>Is boogiepop the strongest force in this series or are there some who can give him/her a good fight?
Ah that's a good question. Touka's definitely one of the strongest MPLS around. But she's not the strongest. There's a guy from Towa who can literally disintegrate atoms.
Carson Davis
>So why was Towa killing chuunis? Because they might pose a threat to them or something?
Yes. Towa doesn't want them to upset the status quo of the world. Normal humans are in power, what if the MPLS revealed themselves and organized, they could take controls.
>Do all MPLS go through some type of change while evolving like Nagi did with her being in extreme pain? Nagi's was going to kill her if it didn't stop. Boogiepop just kind of manifested when Touka found Scarecrow.
No, some MPLS had their powers since birth.
>Does Nagi have no idea Murder killed her dad?
No idea at all.
Grayson Johnson
She never gives up and she never really dies.
Kevin Martin
Absolutely kino how it ended with boogie going pop at the end. It is such a shame that this show came 10years too late.
Carter Martin
Boogiepop has super strength, super speed, enhanced senses, immunity to every kind of mental manipulation, absolute absence of fear. No sure how he gathers information though.
David White
Haven't watched it yet but glad to know that an episode storyboarded and directed by the man Norifumai Kugai himself was the best of the bunch.
Eli Perez
Besides, there is another MPLS who is just like Touka/Boogiepop. That's the king of distortion.
Henry Kelly
Fortissimo? I heard he got played like an idiot by Imaginator
Samuel Williams
Boogiepop is probably some kind of all-seeing entity that manifest himself from time to time in Touka body. He is probably just observing humanity as a whole when he is outside of Touka body. How else did he know about what happened to Kirima Nagi and Scarecrow.
Carter Cook
Why it doesn't surprise me. At the end of the day, the Imaginator is the best. It's not a matter of powers.
Anthony Hill
No, Touka's just an MPLS. It's more and more confirmed as you read along the series. There are others MPLS who are just Touka/Boogiepop. Evolution sometimes manifests as a alternate personality. It's actually quite normal among them.
Kevin Butler
*who are just like Touka/Boogiepop
Matthew Wright
That doesn't explain how boogiepop and echoes was talking in their own alternate world unless that is another of her own chuu2 power.
Tyler Williams
That wasn't an alternate world. It was a distortion created by the king of distortion. It was happening inside a dream.
Jonathan Gomez
Boogiepop just happened to recount her story to echoes during the next arc timeline? That said I thought echoes went back to his planet, how come he is there?
Cooper Kelly
>Masaki got a "breakthrough"
Nani
William King
Echos is a thought being and was just pulled into the distortion by chance. He probably decided not to go back to his planet and stay here to protect the world just like Naoko wished for.
Gavin Sanchez
That gut punch
Carter Parker
that gut punch looked really soft , like there was no real power behind it
was that due to sensei's body being crap due to forced evolution?
Brandon Long
I wonder if she was always this crazy, or the drug and the forced evolution affected her mind and turned her crazy.
Anthony Diaz
This OST is god tier.
I need it now.
Aiden Taylor
She'd have to be crazy to fuck with that drug in the first place.
Thomas Wilson
Best arc so far. Episode 10 is by far the best episode of this season but the whole arc itself is so damn great. I love that this arc came out in complete episodes. I doubt I could remember some stuffs happened in this arc if the episodes of this arc was released weekly like normally. Young Nagi is so pretty and I admire how strong-willed and smart she is.
Owen Thomas
>eurobeat
That was acid trance you pleb.
Matthew Scott
Yeah JP wiki has him as the same type as boogie. Yet even the seven seas translator doesn't seem to think so. Weird.
Screw that I am just going to ask JP readers.
Ayden Wright
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. Don't get your panties in a bunch over it.
William Martinez
I'm now convinced that Towa and Umbrella are practically the same.
Thomas Cook
How do they differentiate them?
imaginator/distortion is spiritual type?
boogiepop is physical type?
Grayson Phillips
I think I'm gonna rewatch this anime after it's done.
Cooper Wright
They're the same type. There's no difference.
Jordan Reed
boogiepoop is still relevant?
Brandon Lopez
>imaginator/distortion
King of Distortion is not the Imaginator, user. You're mixing shit up.
Juan Williams
What kind of music Imaginator is listening to?
Cooper Martinez
I am not saying they are the same.
They have the same type of power, appearing in people mind and influencing them
Brody Allen
Denpa music
Michael Ross
Okay, but weren't talking about their powers. We were talking about their nature. King of Distortion and Boogiepop have the same nature, in the sense that both manifest as alternate personalities of a human being who doesn't seem to be aware of their existance. In Boogiepop case, that person is Touka. For the King of Distortion, that person is... well, that's a huge spoiler. You'll find out in the next arc of the anime.
Aaron Anderson
opm s2 died for this
enjoy it
Nicholas Johnson
Probably Debussy since Boogie's is Wagner.
Cameron Cox
Towa is way more successful than Umbrella.
Aaron Edwards
my guess as an anime only is that suema is the KoD
am i right?
Parker Foster
I'm not gonna affirm or deny. You're gonna have to wait.
Levi Allen
Is this a remake of a 20 year old anime?
Xavier Martin
no. the old anime is an original story based on the light novels. this is just the light novels being animated
Luis Hall
Heeeeeere we go again.
This is neither a remake or a sequel. This is an anime that is faithful to the LN. Phantom was an anime original.
Kayden Gray
>Hollywood decides to remake Boogiepop
What's your reaction?
Luke Baker
10x less dialouge, 10x more explosions
Michael Harris
Mason Perry
So did this get good after the first episode?
Logan Gray
Fuck that glasses dude. Scarecrow was the best male character in this show.
Wyatt Rodriguez
It would be cringe chuuni shit that wouldn't translate well. The first Resident Evil movie was so bad that it was enjoyable.
Nolan Phillips
>canon boogiepop x Nagi
Bentley Clark
episodes 2 and 3 are good
then they introduced a whole bunch of literally whos
Isaac Cruz
Only if you care to piece together the story yourself.
Colton Williams
I just remember feeling like I was memed because the PV had really cool animation, but the first episode looked like it was made on a budget of 100 yen.
Hunter Ward
the show doesen't look like the pv, if thats what you are asking
Mason Taylor
Not sure if anyone will know, but when will the ost be available?
So far haven't found anything about it anywhere. Some of the music sounds neat but is either cut out or quiet because of editing.
Liam Rogers
Fuck.
Christian Long
>>Hollywood decides to remake Boogiepop
>What's your reaction?
It needs to be a TV series on AMC or HBO
Jayden Peterson
vgmdb.net
march 27th
Ian Bailey
Why wasn't boogiepop actually adapted properly 20years ago? Was it due to the live action flopping?
Caleb Evans
>chuuni
can they really be called a chuuni if they actually have powers?
John Russell
>Boogiepop Wa Warawanai
idk what's this but im gonna watch it
Lincoln Bennett
>AOTS
>also one of the lowest selling shows of the season
This is a crime. Are people really that scared of a show that doesn't spoonfeed everything to them?
I realise I'm a bit of a hypocrit by complaining about low sales when I haven't spend a cent myself.
James Howard
are you watching it?
shit is boring
Wyatt Scott
Who thought it was a good idea to make a live action of Boogiepop anyway?
Josiah Hernandez
how bad is the translation of the LNs?
i was thinking on reading them after finishing the anime
Jonathan Lopez
It is the king and mother of all LN.
Boogiepop directly or indirectly popularized the LN industry and hugely influence bakemonogatari and typemoon works like fate, knk, tsukihime.
Kayden Rodriguez
Some are chuuni because they're fancy themselves superheroes and shit. Motherfuckers don't know their place.
Jose Hall
I think it's pretty good.
Sebastian Diaz
>It is the king and mother of all LN.
isn't slayers older tho?
Bentley Parker
It is definitely not boring but the animation leave much to desire. OST was also on point. I don't think this series is meant to be watched weekly since they drop the plot point here and there. Unless you are a brainlet, you just have to keep watching to get the answers.
John Gomez
still hilarious. they killed her off before we even knew why we were supposed to care about her
Luke Lewis
I like her face as her head is leaving her body. She's not surprised or horrified, just irritated at him.
Nolan Rogers
Is this going to be explained more further or I forgot something?
I though the reason Echoes came to Earth was because of a test on humanity by the "aliens", what Kirima influenced in that?.
Evan Evans
Thank you.
Aaron White
Let me see what the novel says in that part. I don't trust the anime or its translation.
Carson Collins
Probably something to do with how Scarecrow rekt the lab and they escaped? Not sure how that fit the timeline.
Julian Morris
It is considered the king of LN because it popularized the LNs in Japan, not because Boogiepop is old
Anthony Rodriguez
but slayers is way more popular, with over 5 seasons
Thomas Stewart
Looks like this is anime original. I don't see it in the novel. So just ignore it.
Benjamin Myers
Looks like anime-only shit to me
>Boogiepop again produced that asymmetrical expression, half smile, half smirk.
>“This world is almost finished. We must say goodbye, Echoes-kun, but I’m glad we met.”
>“Yes. I am grateful that we were brought together here. I know not what quirk of fate it was, but just as Kirima Nagi carries on her fight, accepting the feelings of those she meets, I am grateful for what fate has done. Thank you,” he said quietly, placing his hand on his chest.
>Boogiepop nodded lightly.
>The world around them was vanishing quickly.
>“Where will you go now?” Boogiepop asked.
>Echoes smiled. “I will watch over the world from a distance. No matter what happens to me. Yes. . .I’m just taking my turn.”
>“I see.”
>“And you? Boogiepop, what will you do?”
>“Well...” he shrugged. “First off, I’d better meet the Piper-he made this world before Zoragi destroyed it. He appears to be waiting for me.”
>His eyes looked rather stern.
>“And then? You will fight on?”
>“Well...” Boogiepop started to answer, but the vanishing of the world had reached Echoes.
>His figure went out of synch with this world, blurred, and was gone.
>All that remained was Boogiepop.
>“so,” he said, absently.
>And, left all alone, he began to whistle once more.
>"........."
>Even time had vanished. Only the hazy light of dawn remained. And there, Boogiepop whistled quietly, his Whistle reaching nowhere, and no one.
>“Boogiepop at Dawn ” all over.
Sebastian Richardson
how many LNs are there?
how many are translated?
Elijah King
22 in Japan, 6 translated.
Ryan Miller
that's depressing
Jordan Reed
seven seas just released 2 more, so not really
Isaiah Bell
What would you prefer, "ally of justice", that sounds fucking stupid.
Jacob Powell
Are they releasing 23 anytime soon? Is this why we are getting an anime now?
Oliver Roberts
The first episode got me interested enough to order the LNs, but I haven't bothered watching past that because even before I read them it was obvious that it was a shit adaption with none of the flair that this sort of series deserves.
Owen White
what a terrible kind of anime addition
Jacob Robinson
How are the subs for this series? Is it worth waiting for GJM?
Kevin Butler
I agree. The anime staff have made several decisions that left me scratching my head. Some are downright retarded.
David King
The animation in this show is so soulless, it's like no one in Madhouse gives a fuck about Boogiepop and they just do a quick side job
Gavin Ortiz
I don't know if they care or not, but it does look like a rushed job. Their schedule must have been pretty tight.
Mason Morgan
Angel Smith
Carter Baker
They tried to make it realistic, but thats the problem.
Reality is soulless.
Anthony Reyes
Man those 4 episodes were great. I can't tell if it was because i watched all 4 episodes together for once or it was actually a really well done arc. Maybe il go back and watch the old arcs later.
Levi White
23rd will be out somewhere in spring.
Volumes are coming out almost each year. We got an anime because of Dengeki Bunko and Boogiepop anniversaries.
Samuel Wilson
yes I would prefer that
"super"hero implies you are using some sort of power instead of just attempting to uphold justice
Angel Powell
You are right. Most people probably liked this arc better than the others because it was all together.
People like me that forget details over a week, have a hard time following Boogiepop.
Probably Boogiepop will get better ratings when people watch all episodes together since it will be more easy to follow.
Lincoln Anderson
How does King of Distortion compare to At Dawn and Vs Imaginator?
Ryan Peterson
As a LNfag I'd say it's a bit of both. At Dawn is the second best of the translated arcs but watching in one go definitely helps, especially if you're a secondary.
Bentley Rivera
Technically she is right because all this time Mo Murder only killed people because he was following the orders of the Towa Organization. Mo Murder would never kill people of his own will
Daniel Ward
>streaming
Xavier Roberts
King of Distortion happens in a very short among of time, like a few hours I think. And It's very much character-focused with more character development than the previous arcs. There's more Boogiepop as well. And we get a comeback of characters from the first arc like Takeda, Niitoki Kei and others.
Andrew Hughes
What even is the Towa's plan?
>kill natural evolved humans
>make their own evolved synthetic humans
Are they trying to use their synthetic humans to control the normal human populace?
Justin Peterson
Yes. Their ultimate goal is to conquer the world.
Luke Harris
For once i felt no need to spoon feed me anything from this arc. I probably would have felt the same about the first arc if i knew who the characters were but i got lost remembering some of the characters. The second arc was so long i forgot a ton of the details waiting weekly. I think i'm going to skip the next few episodes til the arc ends which will probably be the final 5 episodes.
Jack James
>Act out your other personality!
>I-I don't know how
>smug engaged: You're an enemy of humanity. I'm going to kill you, by the way.
Boogie doesn't mess around
Camden Garcia
Scarecrow's death scene is probably my favorite part of the anime so far.
Lincoln Parker
Episode 10 as a whole was great. Scarecrow is on of my favourite perspective characters the other being Takeda
Landon King
Yeah, it was really enjoyable. I love the style this show has.
Jose Garcia
>Suiko
I just watched the 4 eps on crunchy and theyre subbed
Mason Bennett
Touka trying to speak as a man was really cute.
Brayden Fisher
Way too cute. Aoi Yuuki is doing god's work.
Samuel Reed
Is it gay if I like how she talk the boogie way?
Jaxon Cruz
one anime that should have been netflixed
Carter Stewart
Liking Boogie or his voice is never gay.
Adam Fisher
should I watch the first season to understand this?
Cooper Jackson
No. The "first season" is actually just an spinoff. You don't need to watch before this.
Hunter Garcia
First season? You mean Phantom? It's the opposite, you need to watch this first to understand Boogiepop Phantom
Charles White
Interesting bit at bottom of the page that gives away the time frame of the events in this arc.
Julian Flores
Didn't this arc end around 5 PM? So how did it reach 6:50?
Justin Martin
Zoragi? Literally who?
Leo Campbell
How cheeky of you, user-kun.
Jason Sanchez
The monster in arc 5. Next week covers this arc
Ethan Bailey
>Zoragi? Literally who?
You'll find out in the next arc. The point is this little meeting between Boogie and Echos happended during the events of the next arc.
Ian Lopez
>next arc
Are we back to weekly release or are they releasing all episodes of the next arc like today?
David Campbell
Weekly release, they only released today's episodes back to back to fit it in one cour
Dominic Young
For LNfags.
>Boogiepop vs Fortissimo
Who comes on top?
Owen Baker
Just finished watching episodes 10-13 and damn, that was the best arc so far. Will the next arc be as good or better?
Anthony Peterson
In the LNs the next arc is a bit better than At Dawn, though it may be a bit harder to adapt properly so it could go either way.
Noah Flores
Okay, I'm dumb, I sort of get the pop bit, but why the boogie?
David Clark
Don't read the subs, listen to what they are saying
Jayden Gutierrez
He's a chuuni, chuuni loves weird names
Isaiah Cox
Doesn't help, the closest he comes to anything like the name is 'bukimi' which isn't really actually anything close to boogie, and at that point you lose pop because he's not saying that in english or anything.
Andrew Sanchez
Yeah, but what about what Scarecrow said was supposed to lead to the name 'Boogiepop'? That was like the entire point of this story, and I can only maybe justify the 'pop'.
Luis Martin
Scarecrow says Boogie was a like a "sinister bubble." That phrase inspired Boogie to come up with the "Boogiepop" name.
Oliver White
The Bogeyman (/ˈboʊɡimæn, ˈbʊɡi-/;[1] also spelled boogeyman, bogyman, bogieman or boogie man) is a mythical creature used by adults to frighten children into good behaviour
Brayden Sullivan
I don't know how to break this to you, but nothing about sinister and bubble have much of anything to do with boogie and pop. And nothing about how those are pronounced in japanese or the actual japanese words lends itself to that either.
Not sure how you expect me to get a direct line from Bukiminaawa to Boogiepop, even if I torture the 'k' into a 'g' because japanese considers them fungibly the same thing.
Henry Lewis
Okay brainlet. Sinister is the boogie part as explained by
Bubble is the pop part. That should self-explanatory.
It's really not that hard to understand.
William Nguyen
You understand that the boogie part is not the operative word really and not used as a standalone right? Boogie on it's own as a concept is just a dance, if you were to try and break out the first part of the boogieman you get bogey, which is the actual word.
Jace Lewis
So what about that has anything to do with how Scarecorw was pronouncing anything? That's also not what 'boogie' means, it's not an adjective in that way, it's not usable outside the stock existence of the boogie man and still maintaining any intelligibility. You can't say it's a 'boogie goat' to say a spooky goat, people will think you mean a dancing goat, or that you're being old timey racist or something.
I can maybe accept some random Japanese author abusing the language like that since they don't know any better, but it doesn't make it not retarded.
William Thompson
It doesn't matter. The point is the boogieman is a sinister figure, so I can see how "sinister bubble" inspired Boogiepop to call himself Boogiepop. I'm not saying it makes perfect semantic sense. At the end of the day Boogiepop is just Touka, a chuuni 14 yo kid after all.
Zachary Reed
>I can maybe accept some random Japanese author abusing the language like that since they don't know any better, but it doesn't make it not retarded.
You have to consider the one who coma up with the name in the story is a 14 year old chuuni girl. It doesn't have to make perfect sense.
Jace Miller
The author is/was a 14-year old girl when they wrote this??? And again, what the fuck does how Scarecrow pronounced anything he said during that little spiel have to do with anything?
Brayden Parker
will she ever get dicked enough to drop the chuuni phase?
Aiden Gutierrez
>The author is/was a 14-year old girl when they wrote this???
I mean Touka.
>And again, what the fuck does how Scarecrow pronounced anything he said during that little spiel have to do with anything?
Why do you think the pronunciation matters. Where did you get that idea? What matters is what he said, not the pronunciation.
Henry Wood
Boogiepop strategically ruins all her dates so probably not.
Ian Allen
>Why do you think the pronunciation matters. Where did you get that idea? What matters is what he said, not the pronunciation.
Because what he said is what I started with and you jackasses said to listen to how he says it.
>I mean Touka.
You know Touka is a fictional character and doesn't actually make decisions right?
Aaron Lewis
Anyway, whatever, I basically got my answer. This is just another 'Donkey Kong' thing all over again.
Jackson Powell
>Because what he said is what I started with and you jackasses said to listen to how he says it.
Sorry I've no idea what that user meant. In the novel the line that inspire the name Boogiepop is this:
>“...you’re probably just a delusion, an illusion you see and hear as you die. A fragile hope, like a bubble, that will pop and vanish in a moment. . .you’re kind of a creepy one, too.”
The pronunciation doesn't matter.
Bentley Gutierrez
You know writers don't need to be 14 years old to write teenagers right?
Jose Edwards
This was such a comfy thread. I hope we can have a lot more of them before the show ends.
